#### DCF calculator This is an R script that allows calculation of the 14C dead carbon fraction (DCF) or reservoir effect in stalagmites. Please acknowledge Franziska Lechleitner (University of Bern) and Jens Fohlmeister (PIK Potsdam) as the authors of the code when using it. Formatting of input stalagmite data tipps: - UTh age of stalagmite in years BP (with BP referring to 1950 CE) - UTh age error needs to be 2 sigma This code uses IntCal20 as the atmospheric 14C calibration curve.
